Ronna (Sarah Polley) must make quick bucks or she’ll be evicted, so she pressures Claire (Katie Holmes) into assisting her in committing a crime. Simon (Nathan Bexton) goes to Las Vegas and steals a car, then gets laid by…

Cast: Devon Sawa Studio: New Line Cinema Rating: 6.5/10 I went in expecting nothing and came out with a thrill. The big problem now is figuring out how to write my review without spoiling it for the rest of you. Before a plane loaded with high school students is ready to take off for a…

Cast: Edward Furlong Studio: New Line Cinema Rating: 6.5/10 If you liked Dazed and Confused, you’ll love Detroit Rock City.

Cast: Adam Sandler Studio: Columbia Rating: 7/10 Money. It’s what makes Hollywood glamorous and actors desperate. The parents of child actors must be desperate, being that they put their children in films that require them to act out such bad habits. Children are considered angels, that is, until you see movies like Big Daddy. Sonny…
